MS Office Forum / Excel / Programming / January 2006combobox change event is running when enable events is false
I am writing some VBA that changes the value in a control toolbox combobox, but I don't want it to run the code assigned to changing the combobox ( it clears it runs some other code and then changes it to a different value). I therefore disabled enableevents, but it is still doing so. I have even put a messagebox at the start of the combobox change event code to display the enableevents status, and getting False back! Is there anyway to avoid this, as surely the purpose of being able to disable events is that this shouldn't happen. I am using excel 2000 if that makes any difference. Many thanks Hi Tysop, Try using a public boolean variable selectively to disable the ComboBox code. At the top of a standard module: Option Explicit Public blDisable As Boolean Then, in the sheet module: '=============>> Private Sub ComboBox1_Change() If blDisable Then Exit Sub 'Your code End Sub '<<============= When you need to disable the ComboBox1_Change code, assign a value of True to the variable. --- Regards, Norman >I am writing some VBA that changes the value in a control toolbox combobox, > but I don't want it to run the code assigned to changing the combobox ( it [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Many thanks I actually had just tried that and it works, but it's just annoying that I now have to change a boolean and dissable events- I'll probably create a sub that disables both and call that when i need to.

MSForms controls are part of the MSForms object model. These controls are not affected by the EnableEvents setting.
